Plastic Film, Sheet & Bag Manufacturing in Canada
Plastic film, sheet and bag manufacturing in Canada has experienced uneven results over the five years to 2023 as a result of extreme volatility in commodity prices and the pandemic.

As a result, imports have increasingly fulfilled domestic demand, though this has been partially offset by growing export revenue. Revenue is expected to contract an annualized 0.1% to $6.7 billion over the five years to 2023, including an increase of 2.1% in 2023 alone. Profit has remained mostly stable during the period despite year-to-year volatility influenced by the pandemic and commodity price movements.
